Captain Evening broadly acted like the epitome of the noble hero. However, he was criticised (even by his own enemies) for his tendency to stand around making grand moralising monologue instead of actually helping with the matter at hand, even if he usually ''eventually'' fixed the problem.

Captain Evening had a [[Mrs Evening|mother]]. He claimed to have been given superpowers by “people from the future”, kickstarting his superhero career, although he used [[Professor Madison]]'s gadget as often as these fairly nebulous powers in his superhero career.

([[COMIC]]: ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Tales To Behold (comic story)|Tales To Behold]]'')]]Long after his enmity with the mad scientist [[Doctor Brain]] was well-established, Captain Evening was patrolling the skies of his home city at night when his attention was attracted by chaos seemingly coming from an abandoned building. It turned out to have been used by Doctor Brain as the location of [[Doctor Brain's Portal|an interdimensional portal]], from which Doctor Brain had summoned [[The Monstrosity|a monstrosity]] which he couldn't defeat. Evening managed to prevent the entity from crossing over from its home dimension by removing the Portal's power source, which was none other than a woman, who introduced herself as [[Jenny Nowhere#In Reality Z-25 31-H|Jenny]].

Honourable to a fault, the Captain confessed his identity to the Griffin, but Jenny saved his life by temporarily [[shift]]ing him to a [[Universe (For Whom The Toll Bells)|parallel universes]] populated with zombies while giving Merv the [[#Zombie Captain Evening|zombie Captain Evening]] to “kill”, thus fulfilling his magical compulsion. She then brought a very confused Captain Evening back. Grateful, Merv vowed to remain in this world even now that he was free, so as to help Jenny and the Captain get revenge on the Brains.

After [[Professor Madison]] visited, she granted the Captain the use of a [[Professor Madison's device|new device]] she'd built which allowed one to detect the opening of transdimensional portals. Rushing to the site where one had been detected, the Captain and friends did not run into Doctor Brain, but rather into a battle between a group of strippers helped by [[Armstrong Fatbuckle|a living skeleton]] on one side, and the [[Legion of Light]] and the [[demon]] [[Red Vicious]] on the other. Though the strippers already had things mostly under control, the Captain helped finish to tie the villains up, and lectured them on their bigoted, self-righteous ways. He then took the disassembled Armstrong Fatbuckle back to his base where he and his friends helped put him back together, after which he offered him the chance to join the team (an offer Armstrong gladly accepted).

([[COMIC]]: ''[[For Whom The Toll Bells (comic story)|For Whom The Toll Bells]]'')]]In [[Universe (For Whom The Toll Bells)|one universe]] where “everyone was a zombie”, Captain Evening was no exception, looking like a dull-witted, undead version of his [[Reality Z-25 31-H]] self. In this latter reality, when faced with [[Merv the Griffin]], who was magically compelled to “kill Captain Evening”, [[Jenny Nowhere#In Reality Z-25 31-H|“Jenny Everywhere”]] quickly switched out her Captain Evening for the zombie one. Merv hit him with what would have been a fatal blow, satisfying the magical compulsion and therefore freeing him. She then brought the real Captain Evening back. Notably, the zombie Captain Evening then just wandered off and was not actually returned to his homeworld.
